The limits of our planet are clear. It’s time to grow in a new way. We’ve explored different approaches to managing our economies and societies, yet time and time again, we’ve fallen short. The relentless focus on growth has often come at the expense of our planet’s finite resources, leading to overconsumption.

Aiming to do things more green is not always easy. Like with any other aspect of software development, there’s a question, “Should we do X?” which is usually followed by the answer, “It depends.” and “How do we measure it?” Now, we still need many things from the industry, like cloud providers, to succeed in our journey. Like any great thing, this will also require a lot of cooperation.

But just because something is hard doesn't mean it’s not worth doing. In our case, worth is everything; it’s our environment.
